#Podcast Live from the Figus Studios, its Weekend Geek Update! Sponsored by BrickSlopes Colorado, the all ages event is this weekend! Tickets available at www.brickslopes.com enter “StayGeeky” for a discounted price. Also, by “liking” this post you will be entered into a chance to see Thunderbolts next Wednesday April 30 for free.
This week Smurf talks Celebration and some of the hot Star Wars topics, Doctor Who has its first two episodes available but it’s the third one that’s a must see. Daredevil finishes the first season with nine episodes, so what did we learn? The surprise hit this week for Smurf is Bondsman, Young Guns 3 might be closer to happening than you think, and the summer of horror kicks off with Drop and Sinners. Both are wildly different films, but a theater must see, and Batman fans have a reason to pick up the comic with the return of Jim Lee and the return of Hush.
Smurf give you his take on Last of Us as fans revolt after episode 2. Just what does this mean for the show and how does it reflect the game? All of this and more for your Weekend Geek Update.

The Best Reacher yet with the close of season three and why a Reacher movie is just a stupid idea.
The current state of the Switch 2, Peacemaker season 2, Doctor Who, and do we need a Starship Troopers reboot. The new Tron trailer is glorious, an older 007 is looking for a return and Pierce Brosnan is looking to play him.

Tickets available now and receive a 10% discount on your purchase when you use the “staygeeky” at checkout, looking forward to seeing you there.
It’s a wild week of trailers and new shows as Smurf reviews the new animated Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man on Disney+ that has been getting some rather mixed reviews. Characters we’ve seen, some of the twists so far and some tributes that stand out while on Prime we get the return of Invincible for season three. Heart Eyes might be the film to take that special someone this weekend but if your flying solo the new Captain America might be a better option.
Also, the fate of Sandman and Gaiman’s other projects as more sexual assault allegations come out, Twisted Metal season two and Borderlands 4 coming soon and we’ve got a trailers for both. The mystery surrounding Kang the Conquer deepens, Thunderbolts replacing the Avengers, and the Fantastic Four has a few fans talking but not for the reasons you would think. All of this and more for your Weekend Geek Update!
